If you're a fan of Southern lit, then yes, you all should read it!

It's also a good summer read, even though it's not all that beach-y. But it has a good pace, so it's easy to read.

That answered my question perfectly! It's not so much the actual olympic dream it's the associated feelings she needs to accept her situation – if I got that right then this looks like something I'll have to check out!

Of all the posts of yours that I just read (a few!) I have to say that this looks the most interesting to me right now. It's going on my tbr and I'm blaming you.

I like how you had people ask questions about the books you need to review. This is a book I have on my shelf to read, too. It sounds like you like it well enough. I enjoy Southern Literature as well.

I'd like to try this book since it's set in the South – I love Southern literature.

I am with Book Zombie – the Olympic Dreams-thing would've turned me off immediately as well. But since you say its not that present in the book, I think it sounds like an intriguing read. And isn't the South about this: genteel on the outside, a bit depraved when you skratch the surface ;o)
